- Such extendable steps are very common in rail vehicles and serve to at least partially bridge any distance between a step edge in the entry / exit area of a rail vehicle and a platform upper edge.
- Such a step for a rail vehicle is for example from the US-A-3,924,545 known.
- the rail vehicle described therein is equipped with a staircase-like entry, each tread is equipped with a contact pad.
- the treads are controlled so that they are retracted only in their associated housing, which is housed on the rail vehicle, when it is ensured that no person is on the tread.
- the presence of a person on the step, more specifically a step on the tread, is detected by the contact pad, which detects a pressurization and a suitable signal to the exit control / rule unit of the step emits.
- the entire contact contact mat as far as a pressurization, considered as a unit.
- the present invention seeks to further develop a tread of the aforementioned type such that erroneous contact messages are reduced by the number of contact contact mat.
- the foot contact mat is divided into a plurality TrittWalletsegmente and each TrittWalletsegment on application of pressure outputs a signal that the Ausfahr Kunststoff- / rule unit of the tread is fed, that in the direction of an extension movement of the tread, the contact contact segments are arranged in strips one behind the other and either the extension control unit is configured such that signals from tread contact segments located within the housing are ignored or tread contact segments retracted into the housing are deactivated by the extension control unit.
- the tread segments are arranged in strips one behind the other. This means that the signals emitted by the contact contact segments in each case can be evaluated by taking their origin into account. This means that the extension control unit is designed such that signals from tread contact segments located within the housing are ignored. For distinguishing the contact signals from the individual contact contact segments, for example, slightly varying signal shapes are possible.
- a position detection is provided which emits an outward position of the treading reproducing signals to the extension control / control unit.
- the contact signals of TrittWalletsegmenten within the Ignore the housing, the kick contact segments retracted into the housing can also be deactivated by the extension control unit, so that they can no longer send any further contact signals.
- the above-mentioned position detection can also be arranged outside the movable assembly, which forms the tread.
- the movable assembly may include a position detection and the extension control unit that outputs a signal representing a contact position at a stepping contact segment to a central controller.
- the signal from the extension control unit can be wirelessly transmitted to the central controller.
- a wired signal transmission is possible.
- the movable assembly may include position switches associated with the respective contact contact segments, which are designed in such a way that the contact contact segments, which are retracted into the housing, are ineffective switchable.
- the position switches cooperate with the position detection and a respective position switch operation takes place when the position detection has determined a position within the housing for a particular contact contact segment.
- the contact-reproducing signals from the contact contact segments outside the housing can be combined in a first embodiment into an overall signal and fed to the extension control unit. In this case, it is integrated over all contact segments.
- the contact reproducing Signals are supplied separately from the contact contact segments outside the housing of the extension control unit and evaluated there.
- FIG. 1 a movable step 1 for an entry / exit area of a rail vehicle is shown.
- the tread 1 is provided over its entire tread with a contact pad 2, which is divided in a direction of movement A in successive, strip-shaped TrittWalletsegmente 3, of which for reasons of clarity in the FIG. 1 only a tread contact segment is designated by a reference numeral.
- the TrittWalletsegmente 3 detect their application of pressure and send via an associated line 4 contact reproducing signals.
- the individual contact-reproducing signals of the contact contact segments 3 are fed to an extension control unit 5, which in turn controls a drive 6 for retracting / extending the step 1.
- the extension control unit 5 the individual contact reproducing signals of the step contact segments 3 are evaluated and converted into a drive control.
- a signal output 12 to a door control and / or a vehicle control not shown here.
- higher-level signals for triggering extension or retraction of the step 1 are generated by the door control and / or the vehicle control and fed to the extension control unit 5.
- the subsequent extension or retraction operation is then automatically performed by the extension control unit 5 by appropriate control of the drive 6.
- the signal output 12 may also be used to report proper operation of the treadle 1, fault events, or generally states when tread 1 is to affect vehicle behavior. For example, the vehicle may not set in motion when step 1 is extended, despite a drive command given by a vehicle driver.
- the signal output 12 can be used to control visual or acoustic signaling devices associated with the treadle 1. It is also possible to communicate with suitably equipped PCs or laptops for reading out internal error memory or for transferring updated software to the extension control unit 5. In addition, the signal output 12 can also be used for externally storing statistical information on the use of the step 1.
- a position detection module 15 is provided for an extension position of the tread 1, which is part of respective measurement circuits for the individual contact contact segments 3.
- FIG. 1 shows the tread 1 in partially extended state, wherein the in FIG. 1 lower three contact contact segments 3 are already retracted into a housing 8 of the tread 1.
- the position detection allows the determination of which tread segments 3 are already within the housing 8.
- this signal can not be based on the fact that a person has entered the step 1. Rather, the case is given here that a suitable object or a small object size when entering the tread 1 between the relevant TrittWalletsegment 3 and the housing 8 is advised and thus has triggered the contact.
- the Ausfahr Kunststoff Kunststoff- / control unit 5 is also supplied by the position detection information about which of the TrittWalletsegmente 3 are already retracted into the housing 8.
- the extension control unit 5 can ignore contact signals of the contact contact segments 3 located in the housing and, for example, completely retract the step 1 into the housing 8, by appropriate control of the drive 6 for the step 1 via a line 16.
- the drive 6 is connected via a mechanical connection 17 with the tread 1.
- Line 9 transmits the sum signal generated by the position detection module 15, while a line 10 is for transmitting position information signals from the position detection module 15 to the extension control unit 5.
- the position detection is composed of a vehicle-side component 7 and a position detection module 15, which is housed within the movable tread 1 and has the task to assess the signals supplied by the individual pressure-sensitive TrittWalletsegmenten 3 in terms of whether the respective TrittWalletsegment 3 already is located within the housing 8, as a result, the position detection module hides signals from TrittWalletsegmenten 3, which are already within the housing 8, from. The sum signal from the remaining signals from the contact contact segments 3 of the contact contact segments 3 not located in the housing is transferred to the extension control unit 5 and thus to the step control.
- An advantage of this embodiment is that the number of necessary signal lines between the movable tread 1 and its immovable housing 8 is reduced.
- the type of preprocessing of the contact reproducing signals from the tread contact segment 3 may be performed outside the tread 1, as shown in FIG. 2 is shown. For this purpose, however, all signal lines must be led out of the contact contact segments 3.
- FIG. 1 For power supply is a power supply 11, wherein supply lines are shown graphically only between the power supply 11 and the extension control unit 5.
- An alternative embodiment of the tread 1 with associated Ausfahr Kunststoff- / control unit 5 and drive 6 results from the FIG. 2 , The embodiment illustrated there differs from that according to FIG. 1 exclusively through the functionality of position recognition. While the position detection module 15 in the embodiment according to FIG. 1 is integrated into a movable assembly forming the tread 1, is the position detection module 15th according to the embodiment of FIG. 2 outside the tread 1, while the component 7 is provided at the tread 1. Incidentally, the operation of the two embodiments is identical.
- the Ausfahr Kunststoff Kunststoff- / control unit 5 is not located outside the tread 1 but integrated into the tread 1.
- the position detection module 15 corresponds in its operation to that of the position detection module 15 of the first embodiment.
- the voltage supply 11 and the signal output 12 of the extension control unit 5 can be wireless or else wired (applies to all embodiments).
- the signal output 12 reaches a higher-level control (not shown here) which controls the drive 6 for the step 1 in its operation.
- each TrittWalletsegment 3 is associated with a mechanically or inductively connected position switch 13.
- Each of the hardware implemented position switch 13 is controlled by the component 7, which is outside the tread 1.
- the position detection modules 15 are designed as sensors which are influenced by an opposing material as component 7 of the position detection. This material is shown in the figures similar to a rod. Different, known active principles (for example, optical or inductive) are possible. In alternative position detection methods can also be defined by the drive 6 mechanical feed movement, for example incrementally evaluated. Other positioning methods are also possible.
- the component 7 cooperates with the individual position switches 13 so that such position switches 13 are opened, in which the associated contact contact segments 3 are already retracted into the housing 8 of the tread 1.
- Any contact replay signals of lying outside the housing 8 TrittWalletsegmente 3 are summarized on a common line 9, which leads to the lying outside the Tritttitlesegmente 3 are summarized on a common line 9, which leads to the lying outside the Tritttitlesegmente 3 are summarized on a common line 9, which leads to the lying outside the Tritttitlesegmente 3 are summarized on a common line 9, which leads to the lying outside the Tritttitlesegmente 3 are summarized on a common line 9, which leads to the lying outside the Tritttitlesegmente 3 are summarized on a common line 9, which leads to the lying outside the Tritttitlesegmente 3 are summarized on a common line 9, which

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Trittstufen-Anordnung für ein Schienenfahrzeug, mit einer Trittstufe und einer Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit, wobei die Trittstufe aus einem zugehörigen Gehäuse ausfahrbar und mit einer Trittkontaktmatte ausgestattet ist, wobei die Trittkontaktmatte(2)mit Drucksensoren ausgestattet ist, welche bei einer Beaufschlagung mit Druck Signale aussenden, welche in die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit der Trittstufe eingehen. Solche ausfahrbaren Trittstufen sind bei Schienenfahrzeugen sehr gebräuchlich und dienen dazu, einen etwaigen Abstand zwischen einer Trittkante im Ein- /Ausstiegsbereich eines Schienenfahrzeuges und einer Bahnsteigoberkante wenigstens teilweise zu überbrücken.The invention relates to a tread arrangement for a rail vehicle, comprising a tread and an extension control unit, the tread being extendable from an associated housing and provided with a tread contact mat, the tread contact mat (2) being provided with pressure sensors when exposed to pressure emit signals that go into the extension control unit of the tread. Such extendable steps are very common in rail vehicles and serve to at least partially bridge any distance between a step edge in the entry / exit area of a rail vehicle and a platform upper edge.
Aus der
Eine solche Trittstufe für ein Schienenfahrzeug ist beispielsweise aus der
Die Trittstufen sind derart gesteuert, dass sie nur dann in ihr zugehöriges Gehäuse, das am Schienenfahrzeug untergebracht ist, eingefahren werden, wenn sichergestellt ist, dass keine Person sich mehr auf der Trittstufe befindet. Das Vorhandensein einer Person auf der Trittstufe, genauer gesagt ein Betreten der Trittstufe, wird über die Trittkontaktmatte erfasst, die eine Druckbeaufschlagung feststellt und ein geeignetes Signal an die Ausfahrsteuer- /regeleinheit der Trittstufe aussendet. Dabei wird im Stand der Technik die gesamte Trittkontaktmatte, was eine Druckbeaufschlagung angeht, als Einheit betrachtet.The treads are controlled so that they are retracted only in their associated housing, which is housed on the rail vehicle, when it is ensured that no person is on the tread. The presence of a person on the step, more specifically a step on the tread, is detected by the contact pad, which detects a pressurization and a suitable signal to the exit control / rule unit of the step emits. In this case, in the prior art, the entire contact contact mat, as far as a pressurization, considered as a unit.
Bei solchen einfahrbaren Trittstufen gibt es die Problematik, dass Gegenstände geringer Größe beim Einfahren der Trittstufe zwischen eine druckempfindliche Schicht der Druckkontaktmatte und eine äußere Umhüllung bzw. das Gehäuse der Trittstufe geraten, so dass damit eine nicht beabsichtigte Kontaktmeldung ausgelöst wird. In einem solchen Fall wird die Trittstufe nicht weiter eingefahren, da irrtümlicher Weise die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit von einer Situation ausgeht, bei der eine Person noch die Trittstufe benutzen möchte. In einem solchen Fall muss ein Fahrbetrieb des Schienenfahrzeugs unterbunden sein.In such retractable treads, there is the problem that small size objects come when retracting the tread between a pressure-sensitive layer of the pressure contact mat and an outer enclosure or the housing of the tread, so that thus an unintended contact message is triggered. In such a case, the tread will not retract any further because, erroneously, the extension control unit starts from a situation where a person still wants to use the tread. In In such a case, a driving operation of the rail vehicle must be prevented.
Ausgehend hiervon liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Trittstufe der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzuentwickeln, dass fehlerhafte Kontaktmeldungen durch die Trittkontaktmatte von ihrer Anzahl her vermindert werden.Proceeding from this, the present invention seeks to further develop a tread of the aforementioned type such that erroneous contact messages are reduced by the number of contact contact mat.
Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass die Trittkontaktmatte in eine Mehrzahl Trittkontaktsegmente aufgeteilt ist und jedes Trittkontaktsegment bei Beaufschlagung mit Druck ein Signal ausgibt, dass der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit der Trittstufe zugeleitet ist, dass in Richtung einer Ausfahrbewegung der Trittstufe die Trittkontaktsegmente streifenförmig hintereinander angeordnet sind und entweder die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit derart ausgelegt ist, dass Signale von Trittkontaktsegmenten, die sich innerhalb des Gehäuses befinden, ignoriert werden oder in das Gehäuse eingefahrene Trittkontaktsegmente von der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit deaktiviert sind.This object is achieved in that the foot contact mat is divided into a plurality Trittkontaktsegmente and each Trittkontaktsegment on application of pressure outputs a signal that the Ausfahrsteuer- / rule unit of the tread is fed, that in the direction of an extension movement of the tread, the contact contact segments are arranged in strips one behind the other and either the extension control unit is configured such that signals from tread contact segments located within the housing are ignored or tread contact segments retracted into the housing are deactivated by the extension control unit.
Auf diese Weise wird die Möglichkeit gegeben, über die einkommenden Signale von den Trittkontaktsegmenten Informationen darüber zu gewinnen, ob tatsächlich gerade eine Person die Trittkontaktmatte betritt oder lediglich kleinere Objekte oder Gegenstände beim Einfahren der Trittstufe in ihr Gehäuse ein Kontaktsignal auslösen.In this way, the possibility is given to gain information about the incoming signals from the contact segments, whether actually just a person enters the foot contact mat or trigger only smaller objects or objects when entering the tread into their housing, a contact signal.
In Richtung einer Ausfahrbewegung der Trittstufe sind die Trittsegmente streifenförmig hintereinander angeordnet. Dies bedeutet, dass die jeweils von den Trittkontaktsegmenten ausgesandten Signale unter Einbeziehung ihrer Herkunft ausgewertet werden können. Dies bedeutet, dass die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit derart ausgelegt ist, dass Signale von Trittkontaktsegmenten, die sich innerhalb des Gehäuses befinden, ignoriert werden. Zur Unterscheidung der Kontaktsignale von den einzelnen Trittkontaktsegmenten sind beispielsweise etwas variierende Signalformen möglich.In the direction of an extension movement of the tread the tread segments are arranged in strips one behind the other. This means that the signals emitted by the contact contact segments in each case can be evaluated by taking their origin into account. This means that the extension control unit is designed such that signals from tread contact segments located within the housing are ignored. For distinguishing the contact signals from the individual contact contact segments, for example, slightly varying signal shapes are possible.
Alternativ ist auch eine Positionserkennung vorgesehen, die eine Ausfahrposition der Trittstufe wiedergebende Signale an die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit aussendet.Alternatively, a position detection is provided which emits an outward position of the treading reproducing signals to the extension control / control unit.
Statt, wie im vorhergehenden Ausführungsbeispiel erläutert, die Kontaktsignale von Trittkontaktsegmenten innerhalb des Gehäuses zu ignorieren, können die in das Gehäuse eingefahrenen Trittkontaktsegmente auch von der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit aus deaktiviert werden, so dass sie keine weiteren Kontaktsignale mehr aussenden können.Instead, as explained in the previous embodiment, the contact signals of Trittkontaktsegmenten within the Ignore the housing, the kick contact segments retracted into the housing can also be deactivated by the extension control unit, so that they can no longer send any further contact signals.
Die oben angesprochene Positionserkennung kann auch außerhalb der beweglichen Baugruppe, welche die Trittstufe bildet, angeordnet sein.The above-mentioned position detection can also be arranged outside the movable assembly, which forms the tread.
Alternativ dazu kann die bewegliche Baugruppe eine Positionserkennung und die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit umfassen, die ein eine Kontaktlage bei einem Trittkontaktsegment wiedergebendes Signal an eine Zentralsteuerung ausgibt.Alternatively, the movable assembly may include a position detection and the extension control unit that outputs a signal representing a contact position at a stepping contact segment to a central controller.
Wenn die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit in die Trittstufe integriert ist, kann das Signal von der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit drahtlos an die Zentralsteuerung übermittelt werden. Alternativ ist auch eine drahtgebundene Signalübermittlung möglich.When the extension control unit is integrated with the step, the signal from the extension control unit can be wirelessly transmitted to the central controller. Alternatively, a wired signal transmission is possible.
Bei einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann die bewegliche Baugruppe den jeweiligen Trittkontaktsegmenten zugeordnete Positionsschalter aufweisen, die derart ausgebildet sind, dass die Trittkontaktsegmente, die in das Gehäuse eingefahren sind, wirkungslos schaltbar sind. Dabei wirken die Positionsschalter mit der Positionserkennung zusammen und eine jeweilige Positionsschalterbetätigung erfolgt, wenn die Positionserkennung für ein bestimmtes Trittkontaktsegment eine Position innerhalb des Gehäuses festgestellt hat.In a further embodiment of the invention, the movable assembly may include position switches associated with the respective contact contact segments, which are designed in such a way that the contact contact segments, which are retracted into the housing, are ineffective switchable. The position switches cooperate with the position detection and a respective position switch operation takes place when the position detection has determined a position within the housing for a particular contact contact segment.
Die kontaktwiedergebenden Signale von den Trittkontaktsegmenten außerhalb des Gehäuses können in einer ersten Ausführungsform zu einem Gesamtsignal zusammengefasst und der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit zugeleitet werden. In diesem Fall wird über sämtliche Trittkontaktsegmente integriert. Alternativ dazu können die kontaktwiedergebenden Signale von den Trittkontaktsegmenten außerhalb des Gehäuses der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit einzeln zugeleitet und dort ausgewertet werden.The contact-reproducing signals from the contact contact segments outside the housing can be combined in a first embodiment into an overall signal and fed to the extension control unit. In this case, it is integrated over all contact segments. Alternatively, the contact reproducing Signals are supplied separately from the contact contact segments outside the housing of the extension control unit and evaluated there.

Die einzelnen kontaktwiedergebenden Signale der Trittkontaktsegmente 3 werden einer Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 zugeleitet, die wiederum einen Antrieb 6 für ein Ein-/Ausfahren der Trittstufe 1 steuert. In der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 werden die einzelnen kontaktwiedergebenden Signale der Trittkontaktsegmente 3 ausgewertet und in eine Antriebssteuerung umgesetzt.The individual contact-reproducing signals of the
Dabei erfolgt eine Signalausgabe 12 an eine hier nicht näher dargestellte Türsteuerung und/oder eine Fahrzeugsteuerung. Beispielsweise übergeordnete Signale zum Auslösen eines Ausfahrens oder Einfahrens der Trittstufe 1 werden von der Türsteuerung und/oder der Fahrzeugsteuerung generiert und der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 zugeleitet. Der darauf folgende Ausfahr- oder Einfahrvorgang wird dann automatisch von der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 durchgeführt, und zwar durch geeignete Steuerung des Antriebs 6.In this case, a
Die Signalausgabe 12 kann darüber hinaus zum Melden einer ordnungsgemäßen Funktion der Trittstufe 1, von Fehlerereignissen oder allgemein von Zuständen, wenn die Trittstufe 1 Einfluss auf das Fahrzeugverhalten nehmen soll, verwendet werden. Beispielsweise darf sich das Fahrzeug bei ausgefahrener Trittstufe 1 trotz eines von einem Fahrzeugführer gegebenen Fahrbefehls nicht in Bewegung setzen.The
Darüber hinaus kann die Signalausgabe 12 zur Ansteuerung von optischen oder akustischen Meldeeinrichtungen, welche der Trittstufe 1 zugeordnet sind, verwendet werden. Auch ist eine Kommunikation mit geeignet ausgerüsteten PCs bzw. Laptops zum Auslesen interner Fehlerspeicher oder zum Überspielen einer aktualisierten Software auf die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 möglich. Außerdem kann die Signalausgabe 12 auch zum externen Speichern statistischer Angaben zur Benutzung der Trittstufe 1 verwendet werden.In addition, the

Auf dieser Basis wird der Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 auch von der Positionserkennung Information darüber zugeleitet, welche der Trittkontaktsegmente 3 bereits in das Gehäuse 8 eingefahren sind. In diesem Fall kann die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 kontaktwiedergebende Signale der im Gehäuse liegenden Trittkontaktsegmente 3 ignorieren und beispielsweise die Trittstufe 1 vollständig in das Gehäuse 8 einfahren, und zwar durch entsprechende Steuerung des Antriebs 6 für die Trittstufe 1 über eine Leitung 16. Der Antrieb 6 ist über eine mechanische Verbindung 17 mit der Trittstufe 1 verbunden. Leitung 9 überträgt das durch das Positionserkennungsmodul 15 erzeugte Summensignal , während eine Leitung 10 zur Übermittlung von Positionsinformationssignalen von dem Positionserkennungsmodul 15 an die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 dient.On this basis, the Ausfahrsteuer- /
Die Positionserkennung setzt sich zusammen aus einer fahrzeugseitigen Komponente 7 und einem Positionserkennungsmodul 15, das innerhalb der beweglichen Trittstufe 1 untergebracht ist und die Aufgabe hat, die von den einzelnen druckempfindlichen Trittkontaktsegmenten 3 gelieferten Signale in der Hinsicht zu bewerten, ob sich das jeweilige Trittkontaktsegment 3 bereits innerhalb des Gehäuses 8 befindet, daraus folgend blendet das Positionserkennungsmodul Signale von Trittkontaktsegmenten 3, die bereits innerhalb des Gehäuses 8 liegen, aus. Das Summensignal aus den verbleibenden Signalen von den Trittkontaktsegmenten 3 der nicht im Gehäuse befindlichen Trittkontaktsegmente 3 wird an die Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 und damit an die Trittstufensteuerung übergeben.The position detection is composed of a vehicle-
Ein Vorteil dieser Ausführungsform ist es, dass die Anzahl der notwendigen Signalleitungen zwischen der beweglichen Trittstufe 1 und deren unbeweglichem Gehäuse 8 reduziert wird. Alternativ kann die Art der Vorverarbeitung der Kontakt wiedergebenden Signale von dem Trittkontaktsegmenten 3 auch außerhalb der Trittstufe 1 ausgeführt werden, wie es in

Dieses Material ist in den Figuren ähnlich einem Stab dargestellt. Dabei sind verschiedene, bekannte Wirkprinzipien (beispielsweise optisch oder induktiv) möglich. Bei alternativen Positionserkennungsmethoden kann ebenso eine von dem Antrieb 6 definierte mechanische Vorschubbewegung beispielsweise inkremental ausgewertet werden. Andere Positionsbestimmungsmethoden sind ebenso möglich.With regard to the modes of operation of the position detections shown in the figures, the following can be stated: in the figures, the
Die Komponente 7 wirkt mit den einzelnen Positionsschaltern 13 so zusammen, dass solche Positionsschalter 13 geöffnet werden, bei denen die zugehörigen Trittkontaktsegmente 3 bereits in das Gehäuse 8 der Trittstufe 1 eingefahren sind. Dies bedeutet, dass kontaktwiedergebende Signale von den letztgenannten Trittkontaktsegmenten 3 nicht weitergeleitet werden. Etwaige kontaktwiedergebende Signale der außerhalb des Gehäuses 8 liegenden Trittkontaktsegmente 3 werden auf einer gemeinsamen Leitung 9 zusammengefasst, die zu der außerhalb der Trittkontaktstufe 1 liegenden Ausfahrsteuer-/regeleinheit 5 führt.
